My baby kisses everyone

This is the part of the post where I would sing the praises of the little angel in my life, talk about how smart and lovely she is, and entirely coat my blog in the same maple syrupy ooze of love my heart is coated in. I feel like whenever I try to write about…

PRO meal: Mexican stuffed sweet potatoes

I’m fully convinced that everything goes with sweet potato. You can add more sweet (butter, brown sugar and cinnamon = the trifecta of foodgasms) or use the sweet potato as a lovely complement to your favorite savory dishes. One of my all-time favorite sweet potato combos: atop a salad with rotisserie chicken, goat cheese and…

Plan and prep: an hour of clean eats

In small breaks throughout my Sunday, I’ll usually take some time to plan out my eats for the week, make a grocery list, shop, and prep whatever I can in advance. I’ll take 10 minutes here or there to make some amazeballs or steam some eggs, but last night, I decided to see how much…

PRO meals: Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore

How to build the perfect salad

Lately, especially since we’re doing March Greens, I’ve received quite a few requests for a salad posts. To be totally honest, a lot of the salads I consume (and I eat a whole lotta ensalada) have no rhyme or reason whatsoever. Leftover black bean burger, swirl of ketchup, sweet potato fries and greens? Totally awesome,…
